Posted in Meetings | Comments Off
April 13th, 2009
The 2009 IOMICA AGM will be held at the IOM World Championships in Barbados on Tuesday 23rd of June 2009.
Update: Due to the late announcement of the meeting we are accepting proposals for resolutions, candidates/nominations for the executive committee until May 12th. The agenda for the meeting will be published May 13th 2009.
Important dates:
April 14th, 2009 (10 weeks prior to meeting). May 12th 2009 (6 weeks prior to meeting), Proposals for resolutions shall be submitted by NCAs to IOMICA by this date (regulation 4.6).
- Proposals for resolutions submitted by ESP (added 15 Apr 2009)

Draft Proposals for resolutions submitted by VCEvents/Bruce Andersen (USA) (added 24 Apr 2009)

- May 26th, 2009 (4 weeks prior to meeting). Information on voting strength to be sent to IOMICA.
The most important task for this AGM is to select an Executive committee for IOMICA for 2009-2011. The procedure is described here: http://www.iomclass.org/exec/ICAvote51.pdf
“Where fewer than two candidates are nominated for a particular position by ten (10) weeks before the date of election, nominations for that position shall remain open and shall be received no later than 6 (six) weeks before the date of election.”
It seems likely that nominations will stay open until May 12th, 2009 (6 weeks prior to the meeting).
All candidates should submit a candidate form: http://www.iomclass.org/exec/Candidate%20form2.rtf
All candidates should be nominated by two members of the World Council: http://www.iomclass.org/exec/Nominator%20form2.rtf
As of April 16th, candidate forms and nominations has been received as follows: (? indicates a missing nomination)

I understand that there have been some issues making the RSD discussion document available on the RSD web site. I’m making it available for download here by request. As well as a draft IRSCA constitution.
Comments to the forum, IOMICA Exec or RSD DM are encouraged.
Cheers

Technical
The AGM resolutions that require RSD ratification are with the Exec for proof reading, they’ll be sent shortly.
Events
Bruce and the ESC are busy with arrangements for the Worlds 2009 in Barbados. An application for 2011 has been received from GBR and looks very promising. I’m hopeful that it’ll be accepted reasonably soon.
World Council
Despite the fact that we seem to have only just completed an AGM, another is looming! The ESC is arranging a date during the Worlds to hold this year’s AGM, notice will go out soon but it’s worth starting to think about resolutions now. It’s also worth remembering that the Executive Officers positions are due for election this year. I’d be very pleased to see some competition for the Exec jobs and I’m very keen to seen each Exec Officers role filled with someone motivated to make a contribution.
The various sub committees are also under staffed, let the VCs know if you feel you can help out.
